Explained in plain English

What is a unanimous decision?

In boxing, a 'unanimous decision' means all three ringside judges scored the fight in favour of the same boxer. It indicates a clear victory where one fighter convincingly outperformed their opponent, as Katie Taylor did in her final match. This contrasts with a split decision, where judges disagree.
